Minnie Driver<\/a> just survived a car crash in France and posted a video on Instagram<\/a>, detailing how \u201cgrateful\u201d she feels to be alive. In the video, she was lying down in bed with a neck brace on and as she shared what happened. While driving with a friend, another car t-boned their car and fled the scene. \u201cWe somehow walked out \u2026 Well we didn\u2019t walk out of it, we crawled out of it, but we did get out of it alive,\u201d she explained. \u201cThe reason why I\u2019m not dead is the car that we were driving. I\u2019ve never been in a crash before, but the 360 degree airbags are what saved our lives.\u201d Driver\u2019s now in London resting. She was in France filming\u00a0Emily in Paris,\u00a0and Deadline<\/a> reports that her injury will not affect the filming schedule and that\u00a0she can film her scenes once she recovers. \u201cI\u2019ve got a sprained neck, and I\u2019m really in shock and sort of cry all the time but I\u2019m going to heal,\u201d she said. \u201cI am so grateful to be alive.\u201d<\/p>\n In the caption, she thanked the good and bad of humanity and she and her friend awaited help. \u201cShout out to the van driver who stopped and helped us before the ambulances arrived. Special mention to the car who slowed down took in the scene and drove off without stopping,\u201d Driver wrote in her caption. \u201cI guess this is the Dao of the world, the light and the dark. My brain keeps replaying the crash which is very hard but seems to be a necessary part of processing. Weeping too, feels good and helpful. Thank you to my friends, my family, all the people at work and especially my friend Ben and his family. I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n Sign up for the Vulture Daily<\/p>\n An entertainment newsletter for the pop-culture obsessed.<\/p>\n Vox Media, LLC Terms and Privacy Notice<\/p>\n
